Private Equity Uncovered
This chapter investigates the growing private equity industry, projected to reach $20 trillion by the 2030s, while addressing concerns over transparency and negative outcomes, particularly in sectors like healthcare. It critiques the practices of private equity firms that often lead to increased bankruptcy rates, especially in acquisitions of large companies. Additionally, the chapter calls for greater regulation and transparency to mitigate the potential harms associated with private equity investments.
